RAW MACA ROOT POWDER
Botanical Name: Lepidium Meyenil
Origin: Peru
Maca grows in the Andes mountains, typically at altitudes of over 12,000 feet. As the soils of these high plateaus are extremely rich in minerals it might account for the amazing array of minerals and health benefits.
What a valuable wonder food! Inca warriors, so the stories and legends say, used to eat it before going into battle, believing it would give them invincible strength and stamina. Maca was so highly regarded in the past that it was at times used as a currency.
Our magical Maca begins as a simple looking root vegetable, has a likeness to a small turnip; but is a complete protein containing high amounts of enzymes, vitamins, amino acids and minerals such as potassium, zinc, calcium and iron. Once harvested, this crop is dried, powdered and packaged to be sent around the world for consumption.
Maca tastes very like Horlicks and we've listed a few great ideas on how to use it in recipes:
I use Maca in my Smoothies and Cacao Chocolate Making Kit - lucky me: it seems have helped in balancing my hormones and reducing hot flushes!
